Yes, everything is better with pictures!

And welcome to SRP... where we are manly, but not manly enough to shave with knives.

I always thought it was cool with proper shaving and after I had been to a traditional barber in England I decided to go for it! I was looking around for knife for a while and then when I was visiting my grandfather back home he had two knifes laying around. He gave me a J.A. Hallberg knife and a Pollart No 20 padle strop and smiled, he said why do you want that?...

It works to shave with it but it is not as sharp as i want it to be, It would never pass a hanging hair test but i still enjoy it!


Cheers....

HI! I've got a feeling it may take a while to live down that knife thing Sounds like you have a really great razor! And to come from your Grandfather, how cool is that?..........JR
